"Alex did a marvelous job cleaning out an area where my AC and pool equipment are located. It had overgrown weeds. He removed all the weeds, laid down tarp and placed pretty rocks there. Looks much cleaner and neater. He is very professional and price is very reasonable."

"This was a hard removal. It was a cement surface over my concrete pool deck. It had to be removed with an industrial size grinder that looked like a big floor polisher. The work was dirty and dusty but at the end of the day and throughout the job, it was being continuously cleaned and dry vacuumed. Every evening (it took 5 days) the completed areas had been cleaned and left neatly. They moved my furniture, my plants, everything and then returned it. Hire them. They are already hired for another project. Highly recommend without hesitation."

"B&T Land Development exceeded my expectations for the work I had asked them to do. They arrived early, were very professional, knowledgeable and did great work! I had them remove some trees and bushes on my property. They removed everything and raked the land back over to make it look nice. They were careful with their machine and never messed up my sod in the yard. 10/10 would highly recommend this company."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
